Utg+1 calls, 3 MPs call, I raise in CO with A [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img], SB and BB fold. Flop comes 6 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] . Checked to 2nd MP who bets, 3rd MP calls. The second MP had been very agressive with a couple losing hands after the flop. One hand he raised the flop and turn and folded on the river. I raise, 1st EP call two cold 1st MP folds, other two MPs call. Turn J [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] . Checked to me, I check. River A [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] . Checked to me, I bet all fold.

I probably would have folded on the flop. An ace is a dangerous overcard to try and hit, because it will often make someone else two pair even when it comes. I might call one bet, but I dont think I would raise the flop.

I think this is pretty much the standard way to play it. Flop is unlikely to hit anyone, raise it up and try to knock out some players. Then take the free card on the turn when it doesn't hit you.
